Relationship between emotions and anxiety

When I went to work again today, I could feel myself slipping into that old mindset of last year. With those emotions left unresolved, my anxieties surface and I obsess. 

I came home and did some meditation and a hot shower seemed to help too. I'm expecting to feel a bit down for the next few days, because that's usually what happens when my anxiety comes up and I don't address the emotions. The problem is, it's just hard to access them. Trying to be patient and practice mindfulness so that when they do surface, I'll be ready to fully accept them and let them have their say. 

Affirmation-I am worthy as I am, just as I am.
